@blehb Yup, well let’s just say back then I didn’t quite understand why I was sweating by the episode’s end.

On my part, I’ve also found that a really small blanket, bunched up, will make a ‘shape’ smaller than a pillow, and somewhat more human shaped and human feeling.

Heyyy, I did the same… I’d lie down on my side and just pretend what was in front of me wasn’t a bunched blanket but :

@Olo Please let me know if your research on, um, silicone ever turn something up!

@foreverlurk It’s bizarre because there’s literally soooooo many Giantess creators on that platform

I honestly don’t get it… they literaly have almost all the media creators, mainstream or otherwise. Can’t we have our tiny space out there without getting harrassed?!

@foreverlurk these are honestly incredible

@foreverlurk wow I love this last 2 excellent

Thank you so much guys, glad you liked them.

@skysayl I wouldn’t focus on the ASMR aspect too much - I know some people get the tingles and stuff from the way it’s recorded, or through specific trigger sounds, but in this case I think we’d focus more on what is being said, even if it’s not purely “ASMR” (I’m not even sure what it really means either).

@Olo They’re almost always plastic. The only silicon model I’m aware that comes in 1/12 scale (a bit under 6 inches) are the Phicen/TBLeague ones, but they’re way more expensive. I also really hate their default robotic anime look, but at least you can sweap their heads. There’s a seamless model that looks pretty nice:

(Sorry again to derail the thread, seems like it’s my speciality)

@littlest-lily Can you imagine what (or who) put those 3D audio thoughts (literally) in my head, uh?

For a static recording, on the hardware side I think there are binaural microphones that allow you to record directly in 3D. Or, like @skysayl said, you can use manual panning to get the same effect but I guess there’s more work involved. My only experience is mixing music but that’s another ball game.

I’m doing research for a little project of mine on the software side of things, namely audio APIs, algorithms to simulate realistic spatial audio effects, room acoustics, sound source directivity, and HRTF functions. But that’s mostly about how to transform existing sounds to 3D in realtime for, say, a VR environment.

@SmolChlo said in Watching Others Watch Size:

I truly get so much enjoyment out of their facial expressions or the way their eyes dilate… like hmmm what are you think about ¿

Well you would have a field day with me, telling me something like this!

Teach me the ways of the extrovert, tiny woman, I beseech thee!

@Olo oh right, haha… that’s probably it.

It’s okay, I don’t like holding grudges.

@SmolChlo It was shown during the holidays on a segment for children, before an Astérix movie lol. Strange choice but late 80s and not as much concern for viewer’s safety back then.

I was really empathic towards the tinies but jealous of the Draags at the same time - I wanted a tiny Oom girl for myself hehe

@Olo said in Go-to sizey daydream?:

Need to get more First Nations stories in there. Lots of Biggos up north.

You’re right, First Nations have giants in some of their tales. There’s Inukpasuksuk in the Inuit mythology, and the sleeping giant of the Ojibwa people.

@Olo Ahhhh someone make this app stat

A G/t… dating app?! Ultra niche, but why I never thought of that!?! It doesn’t already exist, right…?

foreverlurks dropping his 19 other unfinished side projects to code Gullivr…

@i-am-insane it’s not the only one, but one of the few (compared to GTS it’s nothing of course). I have made a playlist of F4M SW audio, including one by our very own @skysayl :

I also have another playlist for M4F, including a script written by @littlest-lily :

I enjoy those very much and I hope more will be made in the future.

But maybe giants are extra prevalent in Norse mythology

I’m really no expert but it was my impression they were. Not based on anything but empirical evidence.

Same way I’ve also noticed that Southeast Asia has a tradition of tiny people in their folklore, based on the various stories and television shows featuring them and what I’ve been told on the subject.

(Someone should do a PhD on Size Representation through history!)

@SmolChlo said in Muse:

@foreverlurk She starts to notice his growing obsession and is concerned that her visits are going to turn into a permanent stay

Oh, you mean she willingly shrunk down to be his model for that session (purely for, er, artistic reasons!), but maybe now he doesn’t want to restore her to normal?

I didn’t even notice the AI tag at the bottom!

Yeah, well that’s exactly my point, it should be more obvious in the UI.
